I'm always surprised to see Cal in the middle of statistics like these. Under Jeff Tedford they had some terrific seasons at the beginning of this 10-year window. They haven't been too competitive recently. Huguenin goes on to mention that Cal has had 12 players in the last three drafts. Even though only two of those players have been selected before the third round that's impressive production. Half of those 12 came in the 2012 NFL Draft. Mychal Kendricks, Mitchell Schwartz, Bryan Anger, and Marvin Jones are impact players for their NFL teams. Cal will drop some in these rankings in a year or two as there will be a gap in the transition from Tedford's teams to those of Sonny Dykes. No Cal players were invited to February's Scouting Combine. That's an indication of that talent gap. Although, receiver Chris Harper should get drafted.
Like Cal's nice showing, USC's presence at the top is due mostly to the early days of this 10-year window. The Pete Carroll years. They'll be hard pressed to keep the top spot in the coming years.
Florida St. and Ohio St. should close the gap considerably between them and the top over the next couple of drafts.
